Texas just hit a wild milestone: solar generation officially overtook coal. Sounds green, right?

Well, here's the catch. This isn't some environmental victory lap. It's purely because solar farms are the fastest way to feed the beast—AI data centers gobbling up electricity at insane rates. Meanwhile, fossil fuels? Still running the show overall.

The energy game is shifting, but not for the reasons you'd think.

Haha, it's another PR stunt, not a green energy revolution at all. NGL, this is just the trick of capital marketing. AI consumes electricity as fiercely as eating. So we're just fooling ourselves.

Ha, it's another "green energy" marketing show, all driven by the appetite of that AI monster behind the scenes. It feels like all the numbers have been twisted; just by adding "surpassing coal," the buzz increases, but in reality, it's just the same old story with a new coat. Wait, is Texas really powering data centers with this move? The reason for the solar energy surge is actually this? Damn it, fooled again by environmental stories, turns out it's just a change in energy sources, the pollution essence hasn't changed. Texas is really going all out, directly launching a solar energy leap to feed AI, but overall still relies on fossil fuels to keep things running, honestly. So, is this really a green energy revolution or a feast for AI data centers? It all looks like business.

Really, the rhetoric of green energy victory is all nonsense, and in the final analysis, it has not been sucked dry by AI vampires

Haha is another "environmental scam" script, solar energy is super coal? To put it bluntly, the monster of AI has too much of an appetite AI eats electricity, we eat airdrops, everyone is harvesting this era

Haha, it's this packaging technique again, to put it bluntly, the appetite of AI eating electric beasts is too big
